Chapter 21: Unspoken Desires

STELLA

It'd been two years since Wales.

Two years since the vans. Two years since Desmond and Taylor.

I made it. I cleared my name from the internet but with a scar I would never heal from. A scar that haunted me to date.

Tears ran down my face as I stood at the same spot, the same as last year.

I couldn't hold back. I held a bouquet of our favorite flower in one hand—scented white roses and her favorite fiction novel in the other.

Living felt illegal, now that

    Chapter 41: Hate? RHYSShit. Blaze knew how to get the best part of me, and she never failed, but why were those fuckers smiling ear-to-ear as if flirting with her—my Blaze, was some piece of cake?She even called him ‘baby’ and he had the temerity to imagine walking down the aisle with her!My jaw tightened in the room filled with laughter and chuckles. I could miss other days but this? I'd never! I arrived in the country three hours before the graduation ceremony began. I'd have returned earlier but I needed to be sure of one thing—Alessio was gone. That way, it'd be safe for her. Three hours. I got dressed and as usual, Sophia clung to me. She was my ‘fiancée’ to the public, so that was the only valid reason. She knew I'd been out of the country but not the exact reason. I'd arrived at the venue, minutes before she walked in.Fuck. Blaze was fuckin dashing in that gown. The purple one. My eyes were fixed on her all through the ceremony. Even when Cassian had walked up to tal

    Chapter 40: You Don't Own Me. STELLAIt ws the D-Day.I held the lower part of my purple hand-stoned and beaded dress as I climbed the stairs, leading into the hall—Cassian had given me three luxurious dresses, made by one of the most respected and legendary fashion designers from Africa, Veekee James. He'd asked me to wear any for my graduation ceremony. I was graduating. The wait was over. The efforts was finally paying off. Two years of learning had ended—it was time to step out of the world of being a fashion ‘student’, chase my dream and get that one thing that had been my drive till this moment—power. The past one month—even two had been the same. But the last month had been even tougher—and rougher. I hadn't seen him in a month… it'd been two since the incident happened.I hadn't tendered a statement online. Nothing. My name was still trending but I didn't care anymore.

    Chapyer 39: The PriceRHYSThe stock issue had died down. I'd settled it but I realized something—It was never meant to take control of my company…rather it was a warning.From no one but K. Alessio K. The bastard I'd shot thrice with my own hands, ten years ago. I had enemies. I've always had enemies—the ones who would give everything up for my head. Just like Alessio, Taylor, and other governors who belonged to brotherhood groups like I used to. I wasn't mad at Blaze. If there was anyone I'd believe without second thought, it was her. I trusted her but that night, I realized something: I couldn't be around her anymore. I'd only attract danger which would eventually take her from me. Since Alessio’s last interference with my company's major shareholders, my boys had been hell-bent on asking for a reunion. I didn't want to….I’d sworn I would never. I wasn't scared of Alessio… I was only trying to be a better person—and protect her from scumbags like him. Alessio had nothing

    Chapter 38:STELLASike!I hate Dylan. I scribbled his name down on my draft paper but God, I didn't hold back. I craved his on the paper while I couldn't help but faintly imagine it was his heart. I didn't care if I damaged the fabric beneath it. I grabbed my phone and texted him.I knew it was the last thing to have done but no matter how hard I thought, it was the only option I had left—face the attacker. “Meet me there by seven. "I hit the ‘Send’ button on my phone, letting out a sharp breath as I headed outside the academy. I couldn't panic. He texted back, agreeing to be there, even though he was curious as to why. Rhys was here to pick me up at the academy and for a minute. Oddly, my chest tightened. “Rhys," I said his name awkwardly, settling in the car. “You shouldn't have come, Rhys. I'm sure you—" “Shh" he husked, pinning his index against his lips. “You know I wouldn't let someone else take you home. I'd do it all by myself” He smiled. God. My mind couldn't str

    Chapter 37: A Side To Him.RHYSI was heading to the executive boardroom. I called for an impromptu meeting yesterday, after the news about the anonymous buyer broke on the internet. “Sir, please, you cannot act impulsively," Lewis, my secretary, pleaded softly as he managed to keep up with my pace. He'd just returned from the branch in Canada yesterday as well and since last night, he'd been hellbent on one thing: “It will affect the decision of the stakeholders" “This is not impulsive, Lewis" I said firmly as I slowed my pace, a few feet away from the door. “It's corrective." “But sir—" “Lewis" I called his name over my shoulder. That was enough warning. I was done, hearing this protective bullshit from both him and even Shawn himself. I could handle it. It was my company, and I would address issues however I wanted. That was final. I pushed the door open, walking in as if I'd just been nominated for an award. I didn't greet. There was no time and obviously, no need for g

    Chapter 36: D’Ace ResurfacesRHYSOne thing I would never do was allowing a scumbag like Louis, move an inch around Blaze. God forbid. Before now, I'd warned him severally…even met him one on one. Just to make myself clear. Stay the fuck away from her. But not surprisingly, he was only perfect àt two thing: Crossing boundaries and disobeying orders. I was going to spare him. I swear it. But the moment his lips grazed her cheeks when he claimed he was bidding goodbye, I lost the reins. I had to teach him a little lesson—just enough to remind him I was way out of his league. I gave him just one injury. Just ONE little injury to remind him to never cross me.He'd remember me every time he tried to run. I'd only put a phone call to Ken, an old friend who was playing at the NFL in The States, and they a match against each other. Ring.
